use of foreign policy more than ever is economic policy. i just want to say i have been deeply encouraged to your response to senator rubio's questions. africa is a continent that holds the enormous confidence and were sadly our foreign service is under represented in our opportunity to advocate for american business and of values and needs and deserves more attention. i chaired two hearings and i am about to come out with a report from the subcommittee. how do you see us successfully competing with china, which has a rapidly growing footprint across africa in both economic opportunities and our different values agenda? what difference does that make going forward? >> i want to begin by thanking you. i say to all the members of the committee, one of the pleasures of having been chairman of the committee is watching individual senators kind of pick their targets and go after them. senator isaacson is not on the committee anymore, but they were a terrific team with respect to africa. i know senator mccain just an important trip. he was a in c

>> well, i think what i liked about the president's speech when it came to foreign policy and national security thing was his comment on the fact that we don't have to live with perpetual warfare for lives in decades. that could turn out to be one of the most important parts of the speech. we have national security and the defense budget, which i think is wildly out of control. it is a kind of old war budget for a very different era. and i hope that the president and the administration and republicans as well as democrats will take a good look at that. neil: did he miss an opportunity to do so? i know all about broad visions any spell out some of the details, but this was an opportunity to say that i see the magnitude of our debt. i see the magnitude of our problems. i am not oblivious to this. i want us all to join hands and look at ways to mutually get this down to size without dividing our social classes. i don't know if that opportunity was seized on appropriately enough today. >> well, i think it was a different kind of speech. but this is a president who has cut spending. he want

policy. >> rose: i want to focus on foreign policy. so what is the challenge for the president in foreign policy? >> my discussions with him for the first book i did obama's wars and looking exactly how he makes decisions, it's very clear he does not like war, he has a deep aversion to war. his challenge in the next years is going to be convince people that even though he doesn't like war and he wants to avoid war, he will do it. he will use military force as necessary. the credibility of that threat needs to be very very high. >> rose: it shows that when we as historians look back, we never know what's going to come in these next couple years ahead. think about fdr, what maybe that he packed the cord and didn't do well but he became the leader of the allied forces even in 1940 before his third term and he mobilized the country for war and that's his huge legacy which we could never have guessed. world war ii breaks out. but i think the interesting thing about obama's first term on foreign policy was the one area where people thought h

more over, more than ever, foreign policy is economic policy. the world is competing for resources and global markets. every day that goes by where america is uncertain about engaging in that arena or unwilling to put our best foot forward and win, unwilling to demonstrate our resolve to lead, is a day in which we weaken our nation itself. my plea is that we can summon across party lines without partisan diversions, an economic patriotism that recognizes american strength and prospects abroad depend on american strength and results at home. it's hard to tell the leadership of the number of countries that they have to deal with the imf, balance their budget, create economic order where there is none, if we don't provide it for ourselves. it's also imperative that in implementing president obama's vision for the world as he ends more than a decade of war, that we join together to augment our message to the world. president obama and every one of us here knows that american foreign policy is not defined by drones and deployments alone. we cannot al
